On my TTC in 1975, the initiation process was referring to a lineage inside the Shankaracharya Tradition. The explanation was given out in paper. The same with the invocation, that we as "old" TM-Teachers still use. Later on, I think MMY stopped to give out the explanations in paper. Before in the 60ths, he gave out even more, according to my "library". Ingegerd > Not when it's used that way.
